Re: [F_minor] Re: Cornelia Foss reveals all!!!
Losely related to the Cornelia Foss issue: I recently discussed Glenn
Gould's social life with my father (who I remind you that he knew Glenn
Gould during the latter half of the seventies). My father assured me that
Glenn Gould was in fact sociable, much more than common opinion seems to
dictate. He recalls seeing Glenn Gould at the all famous Fran's with more
than one woman, and at another restaurant with at least three different
women. Also, my father recalls being invited to Glenn Gould's home on one
occassion, with several fellow artists, and a women had arrived earlier than
the crowd. All these stories that my father tells me confuse me. My father
maintains the fact that Glenn Gould was a sickly sort of person, who was
sometimes awkward to talk to, as he would get up in the middle of a sentence
and wander off, moving his mouth silently and his fingers twitching, but
claims that he would mingle alot more than biographers and the media now
claim. My father even claims that Glenn Gould ate like a normal person, at
least when company was around; he claims that the media has exagerated this,
or completely fabricated it.
Perhaps it is just me, but the way my father told me these stories
flabbergasted me. I am left in confusion, and have decided to recount what
my father told me so that perhaps someone could join me in confusion, or
help me out of it.
